Harbor Shores boasts a Jack Nicklaus Signature layout that plays through a stunning landscape of forest and wetlands. The golf course tumbles across hills and ravines blanketed with hardwood trees, providing a round that is as scenic as it is challenging. Thanks to the massive white sand dunes that edge along the water, the course has a truly links feel. When combined with the trees and natural water hazards provided by the landscape, the golf course becomes a truly formidable test. The seaside location also guarantees that some holes will be played into the prevailing wind. The trio of holes from the seventh through the ninth plays along the water and offer scenic views of Lake Michigan. There are 10 holes that border the Paw Paw River, Ox Creek, and their surrounding marshland.

Pro style layout

Great course and layout. Course and driving range in great shape. Championship style layout greens were in great shape rolling fast and like true Nicklaus style had significant undulations. Everything about this was first class even the rough that trapped several of our balls. Would definitely play it again whenever I make it back to Southwest Michigan

Play at least once

The course is really a good challenge with difficult greens but a lot of fun. Understanding what line to hit your ball on is crucial and for amateur players to score well would require controlling your ball. All in all had a great day with friends on a beautiful course.
